[Shipping Report]

Yeah those Friday double ups really feel like they're there to give the illusion of certain teams getting more Friday night games without any of the benefits of the national syndication for the respective clubs. Basically so Victorian fans and AFL officials have a context removed strawman to point at for all equalisation and fairness based discussions.

Or, maybe I'm being a bit too cynical?

People love attending Friday night games, it’s a cheap night out and no one goes to pubs and nightclubs anymore. The average football follower has no idea what is and isn’t a nationally televised game.

The future prime television slot is 4.30 Saturday, Freo needs to start leveraging that. The old Subi night games used to go off but I feel like day games always had a better atmosphere at Optus.
